It was created in 2018 as a successor of the Molecular Graphics Laboratory, founded by Arthur Olson in 1981. Over the years we have developed several freely-available software tools including AutoDock, Python Molecular Viewer, and CellPACK. Computational tools like AutoDock offer the advantage of delivering new drug candidates more quickly and at a lower cost (Gilbert, 2004; Warren et al., 2006). AutoDock is an excellent non-commercial docking program that is widely used. AutoDock Vina; Tutorial Video. Watch Dan Seeliger's autodock plugin tutorial. The Autodock tools, does not like funny atoms names like 'C1, N13, O28' and so on. Ligands can not be in alternative configuration. Create by: create ROCA, 1HXB and resn ROC and alt a. Example 1 - Rename of funny.

MGLTools is a software developed at the Molecular Graphics Laboratory (MGL) of The Scripps Research Institute for visualization and analysis of molecular structures. Short description and demo of its three main applications are given below. Navigation portlet on the left has links to downloads, screenshots, documentation section of this website where you can find more information about MGLTools. Please visit MGL Bugzilla to submit a bug report or to request a new feature.
MGLTools is supported in part by the following funding agencies/organizations |
AutoDockTools, or ADT, is the free GUI for AutoDock developed by the same laboratory that develops AutoDock. You can use it to set up, run and analyze AutoDock dockings and isocontour AutoGrid affinity maps, as well as compute molecular surfaces, display secondary structure ribbons, compute hydrogen-bonds, and do many more useful things.
AutoDockTools, or ADT, is the ultimate GUI to set up, launch and analyze AutoDockruns. With ADT, you can:- View molecules in 3D, rotate & scale in real time.
- Add all hydrogens or just non-polar hydrogens.
- Assign partial atomic charges to the ligand and the macromolecule (Gasteiger or Kollman United Atom charges).
- Merge non-polar hydrogens and their charges with their parent carbon atom.
- Set up rotatable bonds in the ligand using a graphical version of AutoTors.
- Set up the AutoGrid Parameter File (GPF) using a visual representation of the grid box, and slider-based widgets.
- Set up the AutoDock Parameter File (DPF) using forms.
- Launch AutoGrid and AutoDock.
- Read in the results of an AutoDock job and graphically display them.
- View isocontoured AutoGrid affinity maps.
- And much, much more...
Autodock Tools Command Line
